I am new to sewing and wanted a dress form. Dress forms are expensive so I did an alternate plan.. a duct tape dress form.

Step 1
Put on a long old t-shirt and start wrapping yourself in duct tape. You will need someone to help you when it comes to the upper back. Make sure to do a few layers of tape.
wrap..wrap..wrap....
-
Step 2
Once you are completely covered in duct tape have a friend cut it off of you from the middle of you back all the way down.
-
Step 3
tape up the cut area and start to fill with batting.
-
Step 4I had a stand home that worked perfectly so all I did was tape some cardboard onto the stand the fit the form on top
( The chest area was not big enough so I added a bra with padding to enhance it)
-
Step 5I then decided to cover the duct tape form in fabric so I used a pillow case and sewed up the sides.
-
Step 6You are now the proud owner of a dress form in your exact measurements!
It looks like a long piece of 2 fabrics and it has two long thin pieces of fabric at the top ends and you can just twist and fold it into pretty much anything you want.
Kind of sad I have yet to wear it out :-\
I'm glad so many of you enjoy this tutorial!!
Thank you!
thank you!!
P.S: The dress that is on the dress form... did you make it or buy it? It's very cute
